A point that slides along a segment, line, arc, or circle.

Menu: Construct > Point: On Object | In depth: Points

Click the object you want to pin to, then drop the point on it - it stays locked to that curve and slides along it when dragged.

The point is owned by the object, not just resting on it, so moving or resizing that object carries the point along instead of leaving it behind.

That ownership is the whole point of the command. Anything you build on the point stays tied to the curve, so a construction rides along a circle as the circle changes.
